Recapping a Vintage Radio - GoldenVulture - 09-23-2015

A neighbour brought this to me. They wanted a cord attatched.I checked it out and decided it would need a re-cap first up. I did try it out and it worked though not very well.
Set to putting in some new ones today.

I'll do a check over it next and test it out. I will attatch a permanent power cord if it tests good.

So to recap: he asked for a power cord, but you're actually fixing it?

He still needed a little spark to set things tight.

" She " was told after the initial test that it would need some new " bits " for it to be safe. This was approved.
This isn't the first one she's brought to me. It's about the third Radio and there's been a couple of Record  Player/Radios. :scratchch:

I'll bet you were listening to a little Zappa when you thought of that. ;)
